Internet Explorer Relative Position Resize Bug Fix

By | January 27, 2009 | 4 Comments

Here is a quick solution in case you are experiencing the same issue as I did today.

When using div with position:relative, it becomes fixed during window resize in the Internet Explorer.

There is an easy fix. Just add position:relative to css body element and you’re done.

    Well, unfortunately it doesn’t work for me… adding position: relative to the css body element does nothing.

    Didn’t work for me either. Using IE8 in compatibility mode. I think this is a foobar with tabeless design as the pages with tables don’t have the problem, but mine do (I use tableless).
